I don't know of anyone else who is thinking big, but I am interested in learning more about what you would envision this new denomination to be like. It may be similar to what I am looking for, or maybe not. I'm not actually sure if there are many others who are looking for what I am looking for.
As for me, I have been frustrated with the sense that there is no denomination that really suits what I am looking for. I am uninterested in existing Christian denominations, even the liberal ones like UCC, because of their use of language, rites, and creeds that to me signal an old paradigm (and yet, unlike Marcus Borg, I cannot recite creeds that I don't believe to be true.) On the other hand, Unitarian Universalism is too amorphous and unfocused to satisfy what I am seeking. What I want is something new that rests within the niche that lies between these two kinds of denominations, a liberal theology similar to what people like Spong and Borg advocate, but lying outside of churches that use the language and rites and creeds of the old orthodoxy. I just discovered this forum by doing some web searching, and I am trying to determine if there are others who see things as I do, or if I am really alone in my theology and what I seek in a religius community. I don't really have the desire to reform any of the existing denominations that I know about; but I wonder if there really is any kind of critical mass for creating something.
